Hello! My name is Bindu Sharma, and I am 23 years old. I am taking the free Bible and ministry education at the Christian Leaders Institute to learn more about the Bible and ministry (Learn more about free online Bible courses, Click Here). I am studying the Christian Leaders Connection and Christian Basics Course. Originally from Punjab, I currently live in Delhi City in India. Now, I’m single and focusing on my education. When I found CLI, I enrolled to learn more about the Bible, my Maker, and fulfill God’s purpose in my life. Psalm 118:29 “Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.”
My Family and My Childhood
My father is from Punjab, and my mother is from Himachal Pradesh. On December 12, 1997, I was born in Himachal Pradesh at my maternal grandmother’s house. My three siblings were also born there. Our maternal grandmother took care of our mother and all three of us children. We stayed in Himachal for five years. After that, we came to Delhi to live with our father.
After a few days of coming to Delhi, my mother’s health deteriorated. She sought help, but the problem was never completely cured. My father stayed home from work for a few days, and then it would stop. My siblings also became ill. After a few years, I got jaundice and had many other health problems. My father stayed at home to take care of my mother. We discovered that our relatives wanted to ruin our house. So, we had peace for a few days, and then all the same troubles came again. We knew this was a conspiracy of Satan to destroy our family, but we did not know the true God at that time.
Freedom From Many Troubles
But even then, Jesus wanted us. We had God’s calling on our lives. That’s why one day, the gospel of Lord Jesus Christ came into our lives through an aunt. Our world changed.
My father took us all to church every Sunday. We started praying and attended prayer meetings. A pastor prayed with a hand on my mother’s head, and God blessed and healed my mother. We all stopped being sick and recovered according to the Word of God. A few years later, my parents were baptized and grew even more in the Lord. After a few years, we, their children, were also baptized. From then until today, we move forward in the Lord and seek to please God so that the one who healed us may be glorified in our life. When God calls, He seeks out His chosen ones from anywhere.
1 Peter 2:9 “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”
God Led Me To Free Bible and Ministry Education at CLI
I love God because He saved me. Now, He led me to your path of ministry studies at CLI. Ever since I came to CLI, a new hope has arisen in my family and me, which could not happen in our life before. We had to face many troubles in the past, like sickness, sadness, and poverty. I thank God for His grace and love. I love Him and will work for Him, so his name is glorified.
Psalm 50:15 “Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” Psalm 37:5 “Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.” Psalm 94:19 “In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul.”
Free Bible and Ministry Education is Key
We have a small Christian fellowship where my family and I worship the Lord together. Further, we are learning a lot from CLI’s Bible and ministry training. We know that prayer is vital. Pray when you are alone or when you don’t understand. Pray for others. Every time we learn something new, we pray together and share what we have learned.
I’m surprised the ministry training is all free. So many courses for free are amazing and unbelievable! I love that CLI is providing free education to all the students. Then, students like me who cannot get this kind of education can also take advantage of free education by coming to CLI. CLI is doing an excellent job of preparing leaders so that the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ will continue to spread throughout the earth. The Christian Leaders Connection Course helped me establish the right relationship and a walk with the Lord! It’s important to me, and I love it.
Growing in God
I have learned so much at CLI. For example, the Minister’s Way, A Walk with God, the Seven Connections, the Ministry for Restoration and Revival of the Hurting World, the Home Discipleship Connection, and much more. I am thankful to the Christian Leaders Institute (CLI) because I studied so many important subjects. It will increase my knowledge and develop me even more in the Lord.
Hope for a Bright Future
These are all things that will encourage me to move forward in the Lord and succeed in Christian service. It will form a basis for my Christian service in the future. The free Bible and ministry education at CLI moves me forward in God. He will help me in the future, strengthen my foundation in God, and bring me closer to Christ. Then, what the Lord Jesus Christ wants from my life may be fulfilled, and that my life glorifies the Lord even further.
